Subject: My Nany

My Grandmother was one of the most amazing people I have ever met in my life. Just recently, she passed away. Unfortuenaly, I remember it like it was yesterday. She passed out in her apartment. Just a week later, I was sleeping over at my cousins house, and I woke up to my youngerbrother asking me "Did you know that Nany died last night." Just recently, a friend of mine told me this:

"its ok i'm fine because i think of it as God needed another angel in heaven so he looked down and he picked up my uncle and your grandma and right now they are looking down at you smiling and saying "my grandaughter is the best i know she will have an AMAZING life"

I couldnt believe it, but for the first time, it really hit me, shes gone. I'm trying to tell myself to move on, but that is NEVER going to happen.

Subject: moving on

hey i just read your message and it made me a bit sad. My grandma died about two years ago and for ages and ages i felt horrible. I thought the same as u that there is no way i'll ever move on. But trust me, you wil eventually learnt how to actually cope, i know it sounds very strange and probably something u dont want to do as u dont want to let go, but it is something that must be done. Also dont keep telling ureself to move on as it may force you not to show ure true feelings, like if u r sad or wanting to cry or something. Believe me u will move on naturally, in time, meanwhile dont be afraid to show ure feelings and dont feel u should be feeling fine as it is ok to be sad sometimes. be strong pal, u'l make it xxxx
